A little update on how things have been going since my last post. I had a really good trail run on sat. with Adam and the running group. I got to run with Adam and Jimmy Farnan who is a senior at Chestnut Ridge High School and a state qualifier at the PIAA Cross Country State Championships which he ran the week before. He did outstanding (80th) out of 227 runners and a time of 17:58 which is awesome! Jimmy is one of those guys that makes running look easy, while your sucking wind he's like talking and almost running backwards. He can definitely push me to my limits pretty easy but he is only 19 so I'm just glad I'm even able to stay with him at all. We ended up with 6.5 miles at around 8:50 pace and some good climbs, I can feel my conditioning getting better every week. I took a couple days off and ran again on Tues. (6 mi.) wed. (6 mi.) and then today I did a long run of 9 miles (for me right now) which felt really good. I thought about running longer but didn't want to over do it and I was running out of time. I'm glad to see Adam back to posting, his posts are more interesting than mine are.
Hope to see you on the road or on the trails!!
